Angela Brintlinger is Professor of Slavic Languages and Cultures at Ohio State University, USA. Her scholarly work includes numerous essays and articles in English and Russian as well as books on biography (Writing a Usable Past: Russian Literary Culture, 1917- 1937, 2000) and war (Chapaev and his Comrades: War and the Russian Literary Hero in the Twentieth Century, 2012) and edited volumes on a variety of topics: Madness and the Mad in Russian Culture (2007), Chekhov for the Twenty-First Century (2012), and Seasoned Socialism: Food and Gender in Late Soviet Everyday Life (2019). In her blog The Manic Bookstore Café, Brintlinger links the present—both the extraordinary and the quotidian—with some of her favorite writers, artworks and cultural phenomena.
